Party at the Gallery

The Friends of Rye Art Gallery Christmas Party at the Stormont Gallery proved to be its usual annual success.

The Stormont Gallery and Mayoress of Rye, Councillor Paul Carey and Rita Kirk were present to enjoy an evening of good food and wine, quality conversation and a performance of the Rye Shakespeare Company’s latest production “Shakespeare in Rye”

The performance was conducted in front of an appreciative audience and starred some of the Company’s greatest talent including Deputy Mayor Ian Potter, Ray Fooks, one time Head of the Thomas Peacocke, Yvonne Hamilton the well known local designer, John Breeds of Town Hall and chocolate fame and Sarah Brinkhurst the all rounder.

The play went down very well considering it was a first performance and made a fitting finale to the party.
